I’m realizing that I’m really in desperate need of a vacation. Whenever you leave home, you get into that traveler mentality where you just seize whatever the moment provides, you take pictures, and you seem to just breathe in life a little deeper and little more meaningfully. Routines are meaningless. So with that in mind, …

The Exploding Apartment
So this was actually like my first Chicago moving story, in that it happened when looking for apartments, I just haven’t posted it until now. So when Zach and I were first looking at places, we figured we’d go through an apartment finder of sorts. We’re both quite busy, and did not want to go …
Second set of Chicago Observations
So a couple more here. – Riding the train is FUN. However, since I live two brown line stops away from Lincoln Square, I feel kind of dumb paying $2 everytime I get on the train, to just get off approximately 2 and half minutes later. It would cost the same if I rode it …
First Few Observations from the New City
So I’ve been in Chicago for almost a whole week now, and I haven’t had any observations. Wait a minute, that’s ridiculous, of course I have. Here they are: – I found a Thai food place within about 10 minutes of being here. I knew this was meant to be. So needless to say, I …
The Cynic’s Prayer
One of the more spiritually depressing songs I’ve probably ever written, but I think there’s some hope in there too. The Cynic’s Prayer Brick by brick we built a tower to any height we could choose Did we get too close to your power? Did you have to confuse? Since then I’m just amazed At …
Super Neurotic Man
Newest song. My goal was to write the most romantic song I’d ever written. It’s still a little jaded, but it’s pretty much the best I could do. Super Neurotic Man You packed your bags and moved right into my head Then you caught my hand, and now I’m addicted And I could swear there’s …
Even My Vices have Vices
New song. Typical Morgan jaded relationship type of song. Even My Vices have Vices I fell in love at breakfastI guess it’s the best meal of the dayLuckily it was only in my headSo it just ran away I feel on the brink of everythingBut truth always gives me the slipBut if science runs the …
Chicago Trip – Day 3
Woke up nice and late again with a dog licking my face. We headed to a place called The Bongo Room to have breakfast. I had the Pear and Cranberry French Toast. Delicious. Luke and I then wandered around a couple stores again where I found a Jordan jersey for $4. That was the easiest …
Chicago Trip – Day 2
Well today I was able to basically wake up and watch the Cubs win two games. The game the night before was suspended so they started from the 7th inning, won, then won the next game. In between then we got lunch from a very good noodles place. And by the way, Jamie and Davey …
Chicago Trip – Day 1
Well I’m down in Chicago for a few days, and even though this isn’t somewhere exotic or somewhere I haven’t been before, I figured I could still document it. I’m down here with Luke from Sweet Japonic, and we’re hoping to check out some open mic nights and hopefully meet some people in the local …
